Tim W. SoCal Posted Monday at 08:38 PM Posted Monday at 08:38 PM Rear wheel drive cars with powerful V8 engines in the front have always been, to me, the most fun to drive and use to burn up the road. 1
Ace-Garageguy Posted Monday at 09:41 PM Posted Monday at 09:41 PM Road trips are some of the things I really miss, being pretty much chained to the Chevelle and DeLorean projects because I promised I'd get MY parts done before walking away. 1
thatz4u Posted Monday at 10:02 PM Posted Monday at 10:02 PM Away back in 1964 this group & this song were just begining to become popular... Ā 1
Ace-Garageguy Posted Tuesday at 01:50 AM Posted Tuesday at 01:50 AM "Popular" was the name used by Ford of England for its post-1953 version of the Anglia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_PopularĀ Ā Ā Ā 2
NOBLNG Posted Tuesday at 02:12 AM Author Posted Tuesday at 02:12 AM Anglia is a car built by Ford overseas. 1
Tim W. SoCal Posted Tuesday at 02:44 AM Posted Tuesday at 02:44 AM Overseas built Anglias and Thames Panel Vans are two of my favorite vintage Gasser bodies, as well as that of the Fiat Topolino. 1
Ace-Garageguy Posted Tuesday at 02:48 AM Posted Tuesday at 02:48 AM (edited) "Topolino" is a baby Fiat's nickname meaning "little mouse". Ā Edited Tuesday at 02:52 AM by Ace-Garageguy 1
JollySipper Posted Tuesday at 03:38 AM Posted Tuesday at 03:38 AM "Mouse" was a nickname given to the small block Chevy engine when it was at it's height in popularity, and they called the big block the 'Rat'.......... 2
Calb56 Posted Tuesday at 03:46 AM Posted Tuesday at 03:46 AM Rat always reminds me of the misquoted line associated with James Cagney and you thought I was going to use "Cagney" to end my sentence, didn't you? 2
Rodent Posted Tuesday at 03:57 AM Posted Tuesday at 03:57 AM You never know when someone is going to end their sentence withĀ supercalifragilisticexpialidocious 3
Ace-Garageguy Posted Tuesday at 01:02 PM Posted Tuesday at 01:02 PM (edited) Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious is a nice long word, but is, frankly, puny compared to pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis. Edited Tuesday at 01:02 PM by Ace-Garageguy punctiliousness
NOBLNG Posted Tuesday at 01:07 PM Author Posted Tuesday at 01:07 PM pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is just silicosis and I bet you can tell that I just cut and pasted that word since it doesnāt start with a capital letter.
Ace-Garageguy Posted Tuesday at 01:26 PM Posted Tuesday at 01:26 PM Letter bombs may contain explosive words. 1
NOBLNG Posted Tuesday at 06:04 PM Author Posted Tuesday at 06:04 PM Words organized into a meaningful comprehensive string are what this thread is all about. 1
Tim W. SoCal Posted Tuesday at 06:44 PM Posted Tuesday at 06:44 PM "About how much are you planning to spend on model cars this month?" I was asked, "Less than I spent in a month on alcohol, cigarettes and throwing wild parties when I was in my late twenties!" was my come back. 1
NOBLNG Posted Tuesday at 10:04 PM Author Posted Tuesday at 10:04 PM Back in the purple pond is where far too many of my paint jobs wind up.
thatz4u Posted Tuesday at 10:13 PM Posted Tuesday at 10:13 PM (edited) Up where we belong by Joe Crocker is a song from a movie. Ā Edited Tuesday at 10:13 PM by thatz4u
JollySipper Posted Wednesday at 01:48 AM Posted Wednesday at 01:48 AM Movie soundtracks can have some real good songs on them, the Batman Forever soundtrack being a good example......
Tim W. SoCal Posted Wednesday at 02:01 AM Posted Wednesday at 02:01 AM "Example" is a hard word for my unproductive brain to start a sentence with right now, so hopefully someone else can be more creative.
Rodent Posted Wednesday at 04:37 AM Posted Wednesday at 04:37 AM creative minds build models, others turn into bean curd 2
Ace-Garageguy Posted Wednesday at 12:13 PM Posted Wednesday at 12:13 PM (edited) Curd from milk is used to make casein glue, what Elmer's used to be and why there's a cow on the package, but today Elmer's isĀ polyvinyl acetate (PVA) glue. Edited Wednesday at 12:21 PM by Ace-Garageguy
NOBLNG Posted Wednesday at 01:11 PM Author Posted Wednesday at 01:11 PM Glue is great for joining dis-similar materials, but for styrene to styrene joints I prefer solvent.
Ace-Garageguy Posted Wednesday at 02:34 PM Posted Wednesday at 02:34 PM "Solvent" takes in a wide variety of materials that will dissolve other materials, as sugar and salt are dissolved by water.
Falcon Ranchero Posted Wednesday at 05:57 PM Posted Wednesday at 05:57 PM (edited) Water you guys talking about I thought glue came from old horses. Edited Wednesday at 05:57 PM by Falcon Ranchero 2
